FOUR WOMEN AND THE MEN THEY ARE FORBIDDEN TO LOVE Four nuns find themselves suddenly thrust into a hostile world they long ago abandoned for the safety of the convent. Unwittingly they become pawns in a battle between the charismatic Jaime Miro, leader of the outlawed Basque nationalists, and the ruthless Colonel Ramon Acoca of the Spanish Army. Megan the orphan, who feels an overpowering attraction to Jaime Miro Lucia the fiery Sicilian beauty on the run for murder -- and Rubio Arzano, the freedom fighter who risks his life to save her Teresa whose guilty conscience finally drives her to betray her friends Graciela who bears a terrible secret that almost destroys her -- and the courageous Ricardo Mellado who loves her. 'The Sands of Time' is an unforgettable adventure and a heart-stopping romance, set against the timeless and dramatic landscape of Spain.

Diese Rezension ist von meiner Mutter Anna Rosa geschrieben, weil sie den Buch gelesen hat. Aber sie kann keine Deutsch, so sie hat sie auf English geschrieben.
This novel is set in Spain, 1976.
This fast-moving plot is based on the story about Jame Mirò, a hero of the Basque people, his men, the ruthless Colonel Acoca, an important member of the Spain Government, that Basque rebels were fighting for their freedom, and four nuns of the Cistercian Convent of Avila.
Obviously, I enjoyed this novel and, as other by Sidney Sheldon, had kept me enthralled.
But in my opinion, the writer in this novel has put: as an old Italian Quote sais, too much meat on the fire.
For instance he didn't explain clearly in the latter chapter about the new life of Sister Lucia Carmine, also Sister Megan, that in my point of view is one of the main characters the writer didn't explain fluently about her returning in the USA, or how she got used to her life there. As a matter of fact all Megan's world was upside down in that period .
To sum up, I enjoyed most another novel of the same author, that I had read before this" The Other Side of Midnight.

Wonderfully written, this book portraits you to a world unlike any other. That was the first book by Sidney Sheldon I read, a long time ago, and it's still my all time favorite.
The story, full of twists make you seat on the edge of the chair the whole time. You suffer, laugh, run and have fun with the characters. It's the kind of book that Mr. Sheldon seem to have forgotten how to write. The adorable scenarios in Spain are only a little thing of the whole that the book shows. Believe me, reading this book it's like watching a movie, like the ones we watch and never forget and want everyone we know to watch it too. That's the way I feel about that book and I guarantee you that's the way you will feel after taking this piece with you to bed.

I liked this book a lot.Its based on 4 nuns who escape from Cistercian Convent of the Strict Observance and find themselves in the hands of Jamie miro, leader of the outlawed Basque nationalists. Its about how 3 of these nuns fall in love with Jaime Miro and his gang. For what happens at the end, read the book yourself.
